In games, after some playing time GPU temperature rising to 90C, it stops(not goes higher than 90) and i begin to experience 1-3 second FPS spikes below ~15fps periodically, what is very annoying. I believe i didn't have such issues before upgrading to Oneiric, but i'm not quite sure, so it maybe due to new kernel. In Windows all runs very smoothly. What should i do?
I'm using xorg-edgers nvidia drivers, because i couldn't run any other, neither from repository, nor from nvidia website.
